Lotus visits the Estates

The Cleveland area has a new location to appeal to car buffs called Club Motor Estates. Located in Broadview Heights, they appeared on the map last year and started holding events involving cars and food, once a month. CALL members Kurt von Leyser attended the October event and afterwards told Sandy that the organizers wanted to get in touch with the Lotus group.

We ran over one afternoon and met Jeff Badger and his sister Denise and toured their facility. A very interesting place, and they already have Phase One “car condos” sold and under construction. Phase Two will be starting soon for those of us with more cars than garage space.

They also have a beautiful banquet room, and once we returned from Hilton Head they invited CALL to bring a few cars to their November event, which would be a celebrating the Cleveland Indians run to the World Series. For the November 20th weekend, we brought our Cortina and Sandy’s Evora over along with Ron Kall’s Europa and positioned them in the center of the ballroom. When we arrived on Sunday for the event, our cars were joined by a Porsche GT4 track car and a Firebird in the lobby. It is interesting that all these cars were white. We met several interesting car buffs and ate ball-park style food while watching the highlights of the Worlds Series. A great way to pass what turned out to be a very sloppy day.

Monday turned out to be much nicer and we picked up all our toys. Jeff and Denise are wonderful people and we ended up inviting them to CALL.s Christmas Party, where they seemed to enjoy themselves. Hopefully, Cleveland has a new location for fun automotive events that should last for a long time. We will keep CALL members informed of future interesting events at Club motor Estates.

Club Motor Estates is a great venue! They host Tribute Bands (Bee Gees Gold) and other special events! Great food and service! We will be back with more friends!

Incredible! Amazing! Very Very Cool!

"What an incredible place. I saw a glimpse of one of the new custom garage spaces. Very, very cool. Its going to have a theme of an old road passing by the front of an old gas station, a general store, and a fully furnished and working pub! How cool is that?!!. Definitely the perfect place for the true car collector.
Every individual condo owner will be able to have their own space designed and built to the vision of their dreams, and then show off their big boy and big girl toys they way they should be. This is an amazing location!"

You have to see it to believe it

"I read the beautiful brochures, went through the informative website and talked about it with friends. Until I actually walked the halls, saw the actual garages, experienced the environment, did I begin to understand what this is all about. Club Motor Estates is the most exciting place to be. Where do I sign!"

I finally stopped by and what I saw was incredible…

"My friends told me about this place and after driving by many times, I decided to stop in. This is the Premier Automotive Country Club! There has not been much change to the outside of the buildings. Inside was a different story. It's is beautiful. You walk into this modern foyer with a cool car parked inside. Walking down the hall into the Finish Line Country Club for the members was a place I wanted to be, a bar, soft seating in front of a fireplace, tables for games and conversation, and a game room! I did not see the garages yet and was sold. After seeing the individual garages and the creative design of them, I told my buddies about this place. I can't wait to have them here too.

We drove into the Ballroom, right to our table!

Not only did I have an amazing time with Taylor and Jonathon at their wedding, Club Motor Estates did an outstanding job, the food was magnificent and tastefully displayed, the venue beautiful. The place went wild with the most amazing entrance of the bride and groom, driving into the beautifully decorated Ballroom d'Ellegance in a 1966 Camaro convertable waving and throwing gifts to everyone with the music playing their favorite song. That is how the party started and ended with the bride and groom leaving their reception in the same car. What an outstanding and most memorable party, ever!
